Following a tiring day at the studio, Hongjoong eventually left, saying his goodbyes to his bandmates and managers. He quickly gathered his jacket and keys and arrived at the group's shared dormitory at 10:23 p.m. Despite feeling exhausted, he mustered up the energy to climb several flights of stairs until he reached the living room. Collapsing onto the couch, he let out a sigh of relief, too drained to bother taking off his shoes or jacket.
